(SOLVED?) Re: MP3 encoding?

Sox says that it can handle .mp3, but when I try to convert a file to .mp3 I get the following error:

sox: Sorry, no MP3 encoding support

Am I missing something? Does it only decode .mp3 and not encode them? Is there some way to get sox to handle .mp3 encoding? Or is there some other package that can handle this conversion?

Well, lame does a conversion and does not give me any errors. I can play the file with 'play' from sox, and sox will take it as input to another conversion, so it seems good (and suggests that sox does do decoding, but not encoding, of .mp3 files). I will have to load a test file onto my wife's MP3 player tomorrow and verify that it can play the file.

What?! Look, somebody's got to have some damn perspective around here.
Boom. Sooner or later ... boom!
